Has anybody else noticed that dpreview's website is changed (for the worse imo). Is it just a glitch, or did they really decide to make it less usable and ugly as sin? Or is it just that Safari 4 butchers it?

:eek:

Hmm, I don't see any major differences. Xd, post us a screenshot of what you see.

Must have been a temporary glitch. I went back to get a screen shot, and it was "back to normal". When I went there earlier, it looked kind of like a real basic RSS feed.

ah, you must have clicked on the RSS button on the right side of the url, right beside the refresh/stop button :)

I don't know. I actually was able to get a screen capture of what I saw, but photobucket said it was an invalid file type. I tried to post it from picasa, which did let me import it, but I wasn't able to successfully link the image here.

I really don't like picasa, or google for that matter.

Anyway, I'm glad that dpreview is back like it was. Back to your regulularly scheduled program. :)

Sometimes when a server is busy it will fail to load the necessary CSS file for a page. This will usually result in a very stripped-down version with no colours or images.

I like it, I like the simplicity of it all and I love the talent there.

That sounds like a plausible explanation for what I saw.

here is a screen capure

All of their pages looked like that for a brief time.

they may be talented, however since it's primarily a gear forum, it's mostly gear talk/ canon/nikon/pentax/sony wars. it's been a long time since i've seen amazing photos posted.
